A Great Iuiustlee.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: Since have
been a reader of THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE. and
have became somewhat familiar with the efforts
and plans of those interested in pension legisla-
ton, have time and again asked the question,
Why is il that some enc does not call attention
TO the glazing injustice of existing law in the
discrimination il makes between disability re-
sulting from disease and that resulting from
wounds Why, in the name of common sense
and justice, should not a soldier who is totally
-disabled by disease contracted in line OF duty
be rated just as high on the pension-roll as one
who is totally disabled by wounds? is there
any special merit in having been wounded in
line OF duty any more than having contracted
disease in line of duty2 Yet under existing
law, here is a soldier who was in the service
perhaps six months and who was fortunate
enough 10 receive a wound and was discharged,
and though in good health and able to earn at
least half living, receives from $24 10 $50 per
month pension, while here is another who was
in the service for three years or more. has
ruined his health and constitution; has suffered
from disease these 20 years; is totally disabled
for performing manual labor, and because, for
sooth, ii is disease instead of wounds that dis
ables him he receives 50 per month. Now, Mr..
Editor, il you or any one else can reconcile this
outrageous discrimination, i should be glad TO
know how you do IT, And if il can't be recon
ciled, why does not the Pension Committee of
the GAR, or the Editor of THE NATIONAL
TRIBUNE, or somebody make an effort 10 right
this fragrant injustice2 Why should soldier
who has lost an arm or a leg be paid more than
he could earn by manual labor IL he had both
arms and both legs, and the one who is a wreck
from disease be paid about one-fourth as much ?
Give me back my health and one arm and
can make living, but with two arms and two
legs and no health, can't.-M. A. HEwErT,
Lowell, Mich.

from the victorious advancing lines drove the
enemy at the point of the bayonet, regained
the line of works, and recaptured battery
which had fallen into the hands of the enemy.
The loss was heavy, but Maj. Colt escaped
without scratch.
At the close of September, 1864, while in the
works ut Petersburg, Mai. Colt suffered so much
from aggregated disabilities that he rendered
his resignation. 1t was only q matter of few
hours for an Orderly to pass to the several
headquarters for an approval Of the application.
The honorable discharge was in Maj. Colts
hands just as Smyth's Brigade was ordered on a
reconnaissance. Maj. Colt, although now a
citizen, was lifted upon his horse, volunteered
as an Aid, and was accepted. During the skir-
mish which followed Maj. Colts horse was
thrown by shell, aud fell upon his rider, who
was carried unconscious to the rear, having re-
ceived internal and external injuries.
At the close of the war, by recommendation
of Gems. Hancock, Carroll and others, Maj Colt
was commissioned by the President Brevet
Lieutenant-COlon for gallsntry and meritori-
Gus services at Antietam, Breyet Colonel for
gallant and meritorious services at Gettysburg,
and Brevet Brigadier- General for gallant and
meritorious services in the Wilderness. When
these appointments came to the Senate for con-
firmation the body was closely scrutinizing all
acts Of the President. Senator Conkling ex-
pressed himself satisfied that Maj Colt merited
the honors sought to be conferred, and he wa:
confirmed.
In the Connecticut official catalog Of her sol
diers in the war for the Union, in connection
with the 14th @. V. it is written: 81 Maj. Colt il
deserving Of special mention for gallantry il
the various actions in which the regiment wa:
engaged"

GEN. JAMES B. COLT.
Military Career Of a Recent AppOintee
Of the Pension Bureau.

When Fort Sumter was fired upon and Presi-
dent Lincoln issued his call for three-months
troops, at \ rwich the home Of the War Gov
ernor of Connecticut, James Il. Colt immedi-
ately proceeded TO enlist the first company
under the call, placing his own name at the
head of the roll. The company was named the
Buckingham Rifles" in honor of the Gov
ernor. and became Co. A, I'd Conn. Vols, Col.
Alfred II. Terry. Colt declined q commission
and went in as private.
At Bull Run Private Colt was promoted for
gallanty, to be Sergeant-Major of the regiment.
Returning TO Connecticut he was honorably
discharged from the service, and assisted in re-
cruiting several companies for regiments being
raised in the State. till at length the call was
made for the 14th Conn. At this ii me it seemed
almost impossible to raise men for the war. No
bounties were offered by the State or towns,
and it seemed as though recruiting had come to
an end. Serg't-Naj. Colt received authority
from tho Governor to recruit company. With
a small drum corps he started out to the neigh
boring villages, occupying the tavern by day
and addressing the people in the churches at
night, and succeeded in recruiting and placing
in camp at Hartford the first company for the
18th Conn. In command of a company but
with the commission of First Lieutenant, Colt
went to the front with this regiment, which
